This is not reproducible for me.

2 tenth of one second. Uuuh, that is not that important ;-)

Of course not. Please just purge alsa-utils and try again....

Your soundcard doesn't seem to be configured very well. Please
delete /var/lib/alsa/asound.state, restart alsa and try again. This
works only if alsa-utils is installed.
